Comments

Optimal Screening for Prediction of Referral and Outcome [48]

OSPRO-ROS

Baseline

Concurent Validity (pain) r = 0.31 [49]

Comorbidities, Systemic Pathology

A review-of-systems screening tool that includes constructs associated with comorbidities

Pain Catastrophizing Scale

PCS

Baseline

ICC 0.92 (95 % CI) [50, 51]

Catastrophizing (rumination, magnification, helplessness)

13-item questionnaire that assesses the degree to which individuals have different thoughts and feelings when in pain.

Tegner Activity Scale [52]

TEGNER

Baseline and Discharge

ICC = 0.80 MDC- 1.0 [36]

Function

Function and activity as a numerical value between 0 (complete disability) to 10 (elite athletics)

Shoulder Pain and Disability Index [29]

SPADI

Baseline, 6 weeks, Discharge

ICC – 0.96 [30]CV (Global Disability Rating) – 0.64[32]MDC- 21.5 [30]MCID- 15.4 [31]

Pain and Function

Assess two domains; a 5-item subscale that measures pain and an 8-item subscale that measures disability

Numeric Pain Rating Scale

NPRS

Baseline, 3 weeks, 6 weeks, Discharge

IC – 0.88 [34]Excellent Intra-rater and Interrater reliability with 100 % agreement [34]CV (VAS)- r = 0.94; 95 % CI = 0.93–0.95 [35]MCID- 2.17 [33]

Pain

0 to 10 (11 point scale) based on pain intensity with 0/10 representing no pain and 10/10 representing the worst pain possible

Musculoskeletal Outcome Data Evaluation Management System [46],[47]ExpectationsSurvey &Satisfaction Survey*

MODEMS-E MODEMS-S

Expectations: Enrollment, 3 weeks, 6 weeksSatisfaction:Discharge

Reliability Cohen’s kappa 0.91 [26]Internal consistency Cronbach’s alpha 0.71 [26]

Patient Expectations

Likert-based scoring tool with calculated mean score

Global Rate of Change [53]

GROC

3 weeks, 6 weeks, Discharge

ICC 0.9 [41]; face validity between GRC and patient ratings of the importance of change (Pearson’s r = 0.90) [42] and patient satisfaction measures (Spearman’s rho 0.56–0.70) [43] CR - Shoulder Disability Questionnaire r = 0.74) [44], NPRS (r = 0.49) [45]

Therapeutic Outcome

Global rating of change relative to baseline using a 15-point ordinal scale (where − 7 is much worse and + 7 is much better)

Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation [54]

SANE

6 months post discharge

ICC 0.84 [39]Correlation with ASES (Spearman’s Rho 0.77) [38]MCID 15 % [39]

Function

“Please rate your shoulder function on a scale of 0 % (no function) to 100 % (full, normal function)."
